Scattered narrative. Goofy art. Pass on this one.

The art’s really cool, but often times, the panel to panel/page to page transitions were jarring. You don’t have a very good understanding of the time passing or location movement. Also, yikes on the white lady wearing indigenous attire and standing over an implied dead indigenous person 😬

Also available on the WondrousBooks blog.

The cover gives nothing away about exactly how UGLY this comic book is. The art was beyond intolerable. It felt like a big joke, or a random strip of rookie comic book drawing for a fanboy website.

And the story is not much better. Young Madonna and her werewolf boyfriend have a fight. Details are unclear because of bad dialogue and horrible illustrations. Oh, and this is from the times people hated Madonna, I guess. She was universally hated by all of the people around her.

Don’t trust me on this one? At the time I’m writing this post, the GR rating of She Wolf is 2.

Arrwork was different, not really to my taste. The story was confusing and I don't care to see what else happen in the series.

She Wolf #1 is, narratively, a hot mess. I get the sense that, after finishing the first arc of She Wolf, that the whole series is supposed to be a trippy, disjointed experience. The other three issues accomplish this better. She Wolf #1 does not set up what it feels like it should, and it requires a few rereadings to understand what happened.

Tommaso's plot may be disjointed, but his art in this issue is amazing. It has a weird, 80s inspired feel, and it's all muted colors and loose lines. I loved the art in this book, and it's usually not the art I respond to in my comic books. I would recommend She-Wolf #1 for anyone interested in weird, aesthetic comic books.
